 This is one of the most interesting parts of Goa's coastline, and a good deal more attractive than Anjuna for either a short or a long stay. Much of the inhabited area nestles under a canopy of dense coconut palms, and Chapora village is more reminiscent of a charmingly unruly farmyard than a fishing community doubling as a beach resort. The village is dominated by a rocky hill topped by the remains of a fairly well-preserved Portuguese fort and the estuary of the Chapora River. There are sandy coves, pleasant beaches and rocky cliffs at nearby Vagator. Be prepared for Indian coach tourists coming to ogle sunbathing Westerners, and expect any police you encounter to regard you with some suspicion and shake you down for drugs if you mistakenly tell them you're staying at Chapora.
Access
Bus Chapora and Vagator are well connected with Mapusa, Panaji and adjoining areas. Bus service to and Panaji is a bit less frequent, otherwise the service is frequent. You can catch the bus at the stand near the road junction in Chapora village.
Taxi : Taxi service is readiles available to and from Mapusa and adjoining areas.
Motorbike : This another option and an exploratory one. Most of the hotels and restaurants provides information on renting a motorcycle.
